WarriorFunder is Wayne State University’s crowdfunding platform for student community-based fundraising. Donors have a new avenue to provide support directly to the schools, programs, and specific projects at the university that are most meaningful to them. Through WarriorFunder, students, alumni, friends, faculty, and staff can make a collective impact on our campus community.

• Your project team will go through training and receive helpful tools to guide you through each phase of your project.

ACTIVE PHASE (Campaign Launch)

• This phase will last 30 days and constitutes the live campaign.

• These weeks are crucial! During the campaign, team members are expected to send out at least three (3) email “asks” to their personal contact lists, make four (4) or more updates to their project page, push out asks via social media, and otherwise make themselves available to answer questions about and raise awareness around their project.

FULFILLMENT PHASE (Post-Campaign)

• After the project, groups are responsible for sending out thank-you emails, final updates, and any promised perks to donors.

• Remember—making your donors feel special now means that they will want to come back and support your next project.
